Revenue Recognition [Abstract] | |
Revenue Recognition | Note H – Revenue Recognition The Company’s revenues result from the sale of goods and services and reflect the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled. The Company records revenues based on a five-step model in accordance with ASU No. 2016-10, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“Topic 606”). The Company has defined purchase orders as contracts in accordance with ASU 2016-10. For its customer contracts, the Company identifies its performance obligations, which are delivering goods or services, determining the transaction price, allocating the contract transaction price to the performance obligations (when applicable), and recognizing the revenue when (or as) the performance obligation is transferred to the customer. A good or service is transferred when the customer obtains control of that good or service. The Company’s revenues are recorded at a point in time from the sale of tangible products. Revenues are recognized when products are shipped. The Company elected the Modified Retrospective Method (the “Cumulative Effect Method”) to comply with ASU 2016-10. ASU 2016-10 was adopted on December 31, 2017, which was the first day of the Company’s 2018 fiscal year. The financial effect of ASU 2016-10 on the September 28, 2019 financial statements was not significant. Customer volume rebates, product returns, discount and allowance are variable consideration and are recorded as a reduction of revenue in the same period that the related sales are recorded. The Company has reviewed the overall sales transactions for variable consideration and has determined that these costs are not material. Refer to Note L for revenues reported by segment. The Company has not experienced any impairment losses, has no future performance obligations and does not capitalize costs to obtain or fulfill contracts. |

Right-of-Use Assets | Note D – Right-of-Use Assets In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases (“Topic 842”). ASU 2016-02 requires lessees to present right-of-use (“ROU”) assets and lease liabilities on the balance sheet for all leases with terms longer than 12 months. See Note M – Recent Accounting Pronouncements. In calculating the effect of ASU 2016-02, the Company elected the transition method thereby not restating comparable periods. The Company elected to account for non-lease components as part of the lease component to which they relate. Lease accounting involves significant judgments, including making estimates related to the lease term, lease payments, and discount rate. In accordance with the guidance, the Company recognized ROU assets and lease liabilities for all leases with a term greater than 12 months. The Company has operating leases for buildings, warehouses and office equipment. Currently, the Company has 31 operating leases with a ROU asset and lease liability totaling $10,280,814 as of September 28, 2019. The basis, terms and conditions of the leases are determined by the individual agreements. The Company’s option to extend certain leases ranges from 12 – 120 months. All options to extend have been included in the calculation of the ROU asset and lease liability. The leases do not contain residual value guarantees, restrictions, or covenants that could incur additional financial obligations to the Company. There are no subleases, sale-leaseback, or related party transactions. |

Retirement Benefit Plans | Note K - Retirement Benefit Plans The Company has non-contributory defined benefit pension plans covering most U.S. employees. Plan benefits are generally based upon age at retirement, years of service and, for its salaried plan, the level of compensation. The Company also sponsors unfunded non-qualified supplemental retirement plans that provide certain former officers with benefits in excess of limits imposed by federal tax law. The Company also provides health care and life insurance for retired salaried employees in the United States who meet specific eligibility requirements. Significant disclosures relating to these benefit plans for the three and nine months periods ended September 28, 2019 and September 29, 2018 are as follows:
During 2019 the Company caused a significant event on its postretirement benefits which was derived from using proceeds of its insurance continuance fund to buy out life insurance contracts on its current retiree group as of June 30, 2019. The Company's funding policy for its qualified plans is to contribute at least the minimum amount required by applicable laws and regulations. In the fiscal year 2019, the Company expects to contribute $600,000 into its pension plans and $105,000 into its postretirement plans. As of September 28, 2019, the Company has made contributions of $286,000 to its pension plans, and has contributed $45,000 to its postretirement plan and will make the remaining contributions as required during the remainder of the fiscal year. The Company has a contributory savings plan under Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code (the “401(k) Plan”) covering substantially all U.S. non-union employees. The 401(k) Plan allows participants to make voluntary contributions from their annual compensation on a pre-tax basis, subject to limitations under the Internal Revenue Code. The 401(k) Plan provides for contributions by the Company at its discretion. The Company made contributions to the plan as follows:
The non-discretionary contribution of $565,748 made in the nine months ended September 28, 2019, was accrued for and expensed in the prior fiscal year. |

The Seller and the Seller Owners are collectively the “Selling Parties”. On August 30, 2019, pursuant to the Stock Purchase Agreement, the Company, through EES, acquired all of the outstanding equity interests of Big 3 Precision Products and Big 3 Mold Services, and indirectly through them, all of the outstanding equity interests in Design Innovation, Sur-Form and Associated, for an adjusted purchase cash price of $81.1 million. The acquisition was financed with a combination of $2.1 million of cash on hand, and a $100.0 million credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Santander Bank, N.A., for itself, People’s United Bank, N. A. and TD Bank, N.A. as lenders and a $20 million revolving credit line with lenders through a credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company also used its cash to repay the remaining balance (approximately $19.1 million) of its then outstanding term loan with People’s United N.A. Through its two divisions, Big 3 Precision Products and Big 3 Precision Mold Services, Big 3 Precision serves diverse markets including truck, automotive, plastic packaging products, packaged consumer goods and pharmaceuticals. In particular, Big 3 Precision Products works with leading manufacturers to design and produce custom returnable packaging to integrate with their assembly processes. Big 3 Precision Mold Services is a global leader in the design and manufacture of blow mold tools. At August 30, 2019:
Accounts Receivable Acquired receivables are amounts due from customers, and are stated at net realizable value. Inventories The estimated fair value of inventories acquired, which is at net realizable value. Property, Plant and Equipment The property plant and equipment are estimated at net realisable value at the time of the acquisition. Intangible Assets The estimated fair value of identifiable intangible assets is determined primarily using the Income Approach method which is a valuation technique that provides an estimate of the fair value of an asset based on the market participant’s expectations of the cash flows that an asset would generate over its remaining useful life. Some of the more significant assumption inherent in the development of the identifiable intangible assets valuation, from the perspective of a market participant, include the estimate net cash flows for each year for each project or product, the appropriate discount rate to select in order to measure the risk inherent in each future cash flow stream, the assessment of each asset’s life cycle, competitive trends impacting the asset and each cash flow stream as well as other factors. Goodwill Allocation Goodwill of $44,096,980 arising from the acquisition consists of the difference between the consideration paid and the fair value of the assets and liabilities acquired. None of the goodwill recognized is expected to be deductible for income tax purposes. The following table summarizes the consideration paid for Big 3 Precision and the amounts of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed recognized at the acquisition date, as well as the fair value at the acquisition date. Current Liabilities Acquired current liabilities are amounts owed to vendors or accrued expenses. Deferred Revenue Deferred revenue is the amount of customers deposits at the time of the acquisition. Income taxes Income taxes are the estimated amount of state and federal taxes to settle certain tax positions prior to the acquisition. Deferred Tax Liability The deferred tax liability is stated at estimated tax liability due to the difference in the book basis of assets compared to the tax basis of those assets at the time of acquisition. Acquisition Related Expenses Included in general and administrative expenses in the consolidated statements of operations for the three and nine month periods ended September 28, 2019 were $765,000 and $1,184,000, respectively, for acquisition expenses. |

Restructuring Costs [Abstract] | |
Restructuring Costs | Note I – Restructuring Costs The Company has consolidated the Composites Group by relocating the Composite Panels Technologies division based in Salisbury, North Carolina to the Canadian Commercial Vehicle division located in Kelowna, British Columbia. There were no costs incurred related to the consolidation in the third quarter of 2019. Non-recurring costs for the third quarter and first nine months of 2019 were $1.0 million, which included the write off of inventory in the amount of $0.5 million, fixed assets in the amount of $0.3 million, moving costs in the amount of $0.1 million, severance in the amount of $0.1 million and lease termination costs. The Composites Group facility was closed in April of 2019. During the second quarter of 2019, the Company discontinued the Velvac Road IQ development operations based in Bellingham, Washington. There were no costs related to the discontinuation in the third quarter of 2019. Non-recurring costs related to the discontinuation of this operation in the first nine months of 2019 were $3.7 million, which included the write-off of fixed assets in the amount of $0.2 million, inventory $0.6 million, intangible assets $2.4 million, severance $0.2 million, lease termination costs $0.3 million, and other non-recurring operating expenses. These costs were partially offset by the reversal of a $2.1 million contingent liability the Company established with the acquisition of Velvac in April of 2017 which was no longer applicable at September 28, 2019, resulting in a net charge to earnings of $1.6 million. |

Debt [Abstract] | |
Debt | Note E - Debt On August 30, 2019, the Company entered into the Credit Agreement with Santander Bank, N.A., for itself, People’s United Bank, National Association. and TD Bank, N.A. as lenders, that included a $100 million term portion and a $20 million revolving commitment portion. Proceeds of the term loan were used to repay the Company’s remaining outstanding term loan (and to terminate its existing credit facility) with People’s United Bank, N.A. (approximately $19 million) and to acquire Big 3 Precision. The term portion of the loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1,250,000 for an 18-month period beginning December 31, 2019. The repayment amount then increases to $1,875,000 per quarter beginning September 30, 2021 and continues through June 30, 2023. The repayment amount then increases to $2,500,000 per quarter beginning September 30, 2023 and continues through June 30, 2024. The term loan is a 5-year loan with the remaining balance due on August 30, 2024. The revolving commitment portion has an annual commitment fee of 0.25% based on the unused portion of the revolver. The revolving commitment portion has a maturity date of August 30, 2024. On August 30, 2019, the Company did not borrow any funds on the revolving commitment portion of the facility. The interest rates on the term and revolving credit portion of the Credit Agreement vary. The interest rates may vary based on the LIBOR rate plus a margin spread of 1.25% to 2.25%. The Company’s obligations under the Credit Agreement are secured by a lien on certain of the Company’s and its subsidiaries’ assets pursuant to a Pledge and Security Agreement, dated August 30, 2019 with Santander Bank, N.A., as administrative agent. On August 30, 2019, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract with Santander Bank, N.A., with an original notational amount of $50,000,000, which was equal to 50% of the outstanding balance of the term loan on that date. The Company has a fixed interest rate of 1.44% on the swap contract and will pay the difference between the fixed rate and LIBOR when LIBOR is below 1.44% and will receive interest when the LIBOR rate exceeds 1.44%. On September 28, 2019, the interest rate for half ($50 million) of the term portion was 3.86%, using a one month LIBOR rate, and 3.19% one the remaining balance ($50 million) of the term loan based on a one month LIBOR rate. The Company’s loan covenants under the Credit Agreement require the Company to maintain a senior net leverage ratio not to exceed 4.25 to 1. In addition, the Company will be required to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio to be not less than 1.25 to 1. The interest rates on the Credit Agreement, and interest rate swap contract are susceptible to changes to the method that LIBOR rates are determined and to the potential phasing out of LIBOR after 2021. Information regarding the potential phasing out of LIBOR is provided below. On July 27, 2017, the U.K. Financial Conduct Authority announced that it intends to stop persuading or compelling banks to submit LIBOR rates after 2021. In the United States, efforts to identify a set of alternative U.S. Dollar reference interest rates have been initiated by the Alternative Reference Rates Committee of the Federal Reserve Board and the Federal Reserve Bank of New York. At this time, it is not possible to predict whether any such changes will occur, whether LIBOR will be phased out or any such alternative reference rates or other reforms to LIBOR will be enacted in the United Kingdom, the United States or elsewhere or the effect that any such changes, phase-out, alternative reference rates or other reforms, if they occur, would have on the amount of interest paid on the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings. Uncertainty as to the nature of such potential changes, phase-out, alternative reference rates or other reforms may materially adversely affect interest rates paid by the Company on its borrowings. Reform of, or the replacement or phasing out of, LIBOR and proposed regulation of LIBOR and other “benchmarks” may materially adversely affect the amount of interest paid on the Company’s LIBOR-based borrowings and could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. |
